Quite a bit of criticism for the various diets. And honestly, the ketogenic diet especially seemed good enough cause for worry, even to me. :P

I don't make my son follow any diet...
thing is more in terms of either offering parents what they may ask for or sticking to a brand identity in which case we offer only ABA and GFCF or Feingold and organic food and things like that
